IMO, best commercial goes to Chrystler for their commercial with Clint Eastwood.
It’s half time America, our 2nd half is just about to begin.
Idk, but I love the Imported from Detroit thing they are doing.
Oh and the Silverado/2012 Armegeddon commercial was funny. Where’s bob? Bob didn’t drive the longest lasting most dependable truck. bob drove a ford… Twinkie? Haha
I missed the Clint Eastwood Commercial.

The Chevy Silverado Commercial was pretty funny

That was a good one. He’s awesome.
I went out and bought a Jeep after that commercial. Not really, but I wanted to.
Well the No Fun League has already pulled the commerical :rolleyes: - if you find ANOTHER link, feel free to post it because I MISSED it!
It was a great commercial, part Al Pacino- part Ronald Reagan.
Too bad I actually own a couple of Jeeps and would never buy one again due to my experiences with the local Jeep dealerships :rolleyes:
Better link below… No commercials to sit through before the commercial.

Link was on Drudge.
Yeah, I think the greedy little fucks at the NFL home office must have been inundated with angry comments because the ad’s up and available again on a variety of websites.
And I agree. It’s a great ad.
Nice ad.
I know he doesn’t want the job, but wouldn’t Clint Eastwood be the PERFECT President for this day & age? Unlike most candyass Hollyweird types, he can STILL walk the walk, even at his age.
That said, I bought a Jeep in October - PRE-Obama model. 
'07 Commander.
I can’t stand Chrysler or Dodge. but that commercial makes me want one!
The Silverado commercial was really good too. Ford was trying to get it pulled. They sent off some nasty letters to the NFL, NBC, and GM about it.
Ah star power, even lousy products look great with the right spokesperson pulling the heartstrings. If they could only use those same strings to lift themselves from the lower pits of the JD Powers and Consumer Report reliability lists. At least it isn’t a Land Rover!
Fiat owns Chrysler 58%+ :big_boss:
Fiat also owns Ferrari and Maserati so being a subsidiary of Fiat doesn’t mean very much. Mercedes kind of used Chrysler as a dumping ground too.
I did…
well, not really after but only 246 miles before… 
I honestly thought they were going to flash some Obama propoganda at some point during the commercial, or talk about the bailout being paid back, or whatever.
Wasn’t really a fan.
The message would be good, if it was not tainted by the very recent past.
Pretty sure Christian Bale took his vocal lessons for “The Dark Knight” from Mr. Eastwood.
Yep. Clint’s great, so is the general message.
But there’s a “cognitive dissonance” for me, which contradicts the message. And that’s the idea that car companies–especially Chrysler–are somehow poised to lead the way to “America’s 2nd half.” Chrysler may be doing RELATIVELY better, compared to their own recent dismal history, but going from being dead last in a race to STILL being dead last but just not as far behind, is hardly a great victory. The facts on the ground are that most of their vehicles have very poor quality control, Chrysler products (if you look at any consumer research publications on incidence of repair such as Consumer Reports) are nearly always inferior to everyone else’s in the quality control department. Maybe they’ve somehow completely turned that around, just with this year’s crop of vehicles. But I doubt it. Really, I don’t see evidence yet that any of our big automakers are shining examples of innovative thinking, great design, or sound business practices that will lead us into the 21st century. I hope I’m wrong, but not seeing it.
The “2nd half” leadership and innovation from the business world, IMO, is going to have to come from somewhere other than the auto companies. Their mediocrity is almost a given, because they are controlled almost completely by unionized workforces where the focus is on getting better benefits for workers and not on producing great quality and high value products.
Easy to say when you take billions in tax payers dollars. Is that how we’re going to ‘get back’?
Ya i think i’ll stick with my Toyota. They got enough money handed to them by the government.
hell i’d hope they’re “coming back” after that…
